Pitch Night YYC

Join us for Volition Pitch Night YYC, coming up on February 26, 2019! After launching our events in Calgary with two successful Women's Pitch Nights last fall, we're coming back in 2019 with a Pitch Night for all. Pitcher spots will be open to all genders, all fields, tech, and non-tech.

Hope to see you there!

Pitch Nights provide a comfortable space for entrepreneurs to gain practical experience and feedback on their 3-minute pitch, in front of a live audience and industry panel. The audience votes on the top three companies to receive valuable prizes from sponsors and partners.

Feedback Panelists:

• Adam Reid: Manager, Business Markets - RBC

• Cathryn Carruthers: Founder & Executive Coach - Carruthers Communications

• Joelle Foster: Executive Director - Hunter Hub for Entrepreneurial Thinking

• Lorraine Becker: Lead, Recruitment and Partnerships - Creative Destruction Lab, Rockies

Who Attends?

• Pitchers: startups at any stage looking for practical experience pitching their company. This is a great opportunity to try out messaging and learn where your gaps and areas of improvement are for your pitch.

• Panelists: experts from the startup community from a variety of backgrounds. We feature an all-women panel for this event.

• Audience: entrepreneurs, investors, educators, supporters, and those who are just plain curious. All genders and backgrounds invited to attend as audience
